Crappy movie ,yes. But a fun crappy movie. I would rather watch this than some of the awful remakes or recent attempts at sci-fi or horror movies that have much higher budgets but without the fun of these old films.

I wholeheartedly agree.

Me Too And I've seen it several times!!
Its just the right length and the girls are easy on the eyes
Funny and also Weird
Some might disagree But I give it a 9 purely for entertainment Value !

I loved it too though I have to disagree with the transparent part since it wasn't just the alien that was transparent, but Nancy too when she becomes a giant.

I love this movie, too, my favorite from the old days!!

Hard not to love it - although theres nothing "good" about it as it were. Hilarious film that poses a similar kind of dilemma when it comes to actually rating it as Plan 9 & Glen Or Glenda do - on one hand pitifully inept, but on the other a bunch of fun. Eventually rated it 3/10, but that dont really mean sh-t.

I agree with you 100% OP.

I really like this movie as well. It is not great, but very enjoyable. Just one of those movies that takes several little things and adds up to something more fun than it should be.

Yes it's hokey, it's campy, and the special effects are horrible.
The giant hand in the beginning actually looked quite realistic. I wonder why the aliens hands looked more natural and Nancy's giant hands looked so fake.

Caught this one on TCM last night and really enjoyed it.

OTOH the acting over-all is not half-bad, the actors (especially the cops) show some great body language and facial expressions, and the characters have some hilarious laugh-out-loud lines poking fun at the social mores of the time.
High art it ain't, but accept it for what it is. I rate it 6/10.

One of the most hilariously bad low budget science fiction/horror films of all time. Oversized hands that couldn't fit the whole person in the room, a giant alien who appears for no known reason, and has a fascination with gems.
Great characters who deliver their lines perfectly, and special effects that will keep you rolling on the floor. And don't forget about the product placement, hoping to make extra bucks for promoting a relatively unknown product, 7 up, at that time , not known as the uncola, just the unknown cola.
TV Newscaster that scolds the audience. What a hoot. And the director changed his name for the credits.Amazing ! Truly an American Classic !

Anybody who likes women likes this movie! lol

I hear Yvette has been found dead in her Beverly Hill mansion - mummified apparently.
